Gulu City Rotary Club received thirty sewing machines for training women who need help. The club president, Counsel Walter Okidi-Ladwar, accepted these machines at the Wend Africa offices. He explained that these machines will teach tailoring skills to women facing hardship, helping them earn money for their families. The Rotary Club plans to work with other groups to plant trees and address environmental problems.
Wend Africa founder Jolly Laker Andruville shared that the machines cost 42 million shillings. Training sessions will happen at the Wend Africa facilities. She mentioned they will announce registration details through media channels for interested women. Milka Lamwaka, who learned tailoring through Wend Africa before, praised this new program. She believes these machines will change many lives.
The program aims to create independence for struggling women through practical skills. Learning to sew opens job opportunities for participants. With these new machines, more classes can run simultaneously. This partnership between the Rotary Club of Gulu City and Wend Africa shows that community support matters. Local leaders hope this initiative creates lasting positive changes for families.
